Best Sunscreens of the Year | Doctorly Favorites of 2024

[@Henna2189Hearts]

Maintaining hydration and reapplying sunscreen two times a day is what works best for me. The riceberry sunscreen from liittllextra is currently my favorite, as it suits those with oily or combination skin perfectly. It doesn't feel like a sunscreen, absorbs really quickly into the skin and leaves a matte finish. Probably the only sunscreen that hasn't felt oily on my skin. Absolutely loved it!

[@sonaliagrahari9]

It's been about 25 days, and I have been seeing positive effects with rice berry Sunscreen spf and face moisturizer.

For those dark skinned people wondering about biossance. I’m medium-deep skinned tone. I use biossance. I’ve used it for two years. It’s starts out like a white cast, and after rubbing it in, it does disappear after about one-two min. I do rub it out of my eyebrow hair. It does rub out easy.

I have a medium brown skin (more brown than medium). Biossance leaves a little bit of a white-cast if I don't thoroughly (full 2 minutes ^) rub it in. It also leaves more of a white-cast on the more peach fuzzier parts of my face but as long as I properly massage my face with it, nothing shows.

To avoid getting tinted sunscreen on your clothes, just use a non-tinted sunscreen on your neck, chest and hands. Use your tinted sunscreen on just your face. Works for me!

[@WendorfPhD]

If you want to be 2 different shades, yes.

[@maryly09]

i do that too. i used the tinted sunsscreen on my face and the non-tinted one on my neck. still, the tinted sunscreen still gets on my shirt. i tend to rub my face and eyes throughout the day and it often gets on my clothes. i can't stand tinted sunscreen.

[@29028ft]

The reason they are usually tinted sunscreen is for the visible light blocking properties from the tint. If you don’t use it on your neck, you don’t get those benefits.

Colorescience mineral Flex (tinted) 50 I’ve been using for more than a year now and I have to admit that it is just fantastic for my very sensitive pale skin. The colour blends super and so well that I can re apply layers over the day without any un comfort nor marks, etc, and doesn’t sting at all. Very surprised how it does deliver all aspects no harm for the environment. Thank you for the review always useful should I need to change! 😊

[@hayatwahob]

I also like the texture of color science, but I don't like that the color transfers. Do you have to set it?

[@margieangel]

I’m so glad that you mentioned colorscience! I would be interested in their opinion although they may have commented in a previous video. I love it. I also have pale skin so I use the fair skin tone version. As I have a lot of oil still in my 70-year-old skin, I was looking for a product to combine a sunscreen and some color. It helps me use less foundation, which was my goal. I do set it with a little powder and finishing spray, but because I still have good oil in my skin, I do have to blot it during the day. You definitely cannot say that all older people have dry skin, that is a myth. lol!

The purple onion sunscreen is the one Cassandra Bankson helped formulate with Isntree. I haven’t personally used it but I have seen good reviews on it. I personally love the Beauty of Joseon sunscreen. I’ve went through so many bottles of that one over the last few years! I also very much like the Tula protect and glow sunscreen. It has a nice glow without looking greasy and it’s very comfortable and doesn’t leave any cast on the skin. It’s a bit pricey and that’s the only downfall to that one.

[@midlifemom5829]

Agree w/ you Dr Maxfield re: tinted sunscreen! For me , its so challenging to find a mineral sunscreen that is a matte /satin finish and tinted for tan/deep skin. Australian Gold SPF50 in med/deep tint is my HG for years. I avoid chemical sunscreen because i have hyperpigmentation and ive read that: "Yes, chemical sunscreens can produce heat as a byproduct when they absorb UV radiation, which can potentially worsen hyperpigmentation conditions. Hyperpigmentation is a common skin condition that causes some areas of the skin to be darker than others. Heat can trigger melasma, a type of hyperpigmentation, especially in people with darker skin tones." Do u agree with this Drs Max n Shah? Im concerned because i really would like to try our K- sunscreens. Also, are the SPF stickers reliable in testing sunscreen efficacy?

[@shalop5614]

Good news, you don't need to worry about this! There is no significant difference in heat between physical and chemical sunscreens. Both chemical and physical sunscreens absorb almost all UV, and the vast majority of heat comes from inferred and visible light, not UV. kzbin.info/www/bejne/n3fLq6VvecegjdU

[@renamartin469]

I’ve heard this too, so I stick with mineral tinted sunscreens. My top favorite is the ISDIN Ageless one and I also have been enjoying the Cotz Flawless Finish.

[@bonzofreebird393]

I agree without you and have the same preferences regarding mineral sunscreens. after a lot of research, trial and error, I found personally that the MDsolarsciences mineral tinted and the Isdin ageless tinted are the best for me. I don't even feel that I'm wearing sunscreen because of how lightweight they are, and they're very smooth/matte while still being moisturizing, not drying, and also water resistant. chemical sunscreens not only cause hyperpigmentation but are damaging to the oceans and coral, are irritating for sensitive and acne prone skin, and not to mention the research regarding absorption into the bloodstream and hormonal changes. even if the research is limited and needs further investigation, if there is even a chance that chemical sunscreens can harm both human AND environmental health, mineral sunscreens are 100% the way to go.

I dont know how I feel about the Beauty of Joseon one.... It feels and looks amazing, but I have so many new freckles while using it (I reapply as well)... and last year I didn't get any with the same skincare routine and using other sunscreens. :/ So honestly I doubt the full protection, even though I dont burn using it....

I tend to be sensitive to added fragrances. In future videos please consider mentioning if products smell & how strong

I have tried so many sunscreens especially the mineral one and I keep coming back to EltaMD UV Clear broad spectrum spf 46 tinted. This time I bought a package of two so I would not run out during this summer.

Love the video but I dont know Dr maxfield is getting more and more handsome and I have to turn off the lighting on my computer and just listen to the audio bc he is very distracting. I dont see how he can practice medicine without his patients going crazy..wow

You 2 make me laugh. So much fun. You have great taste in sunscreens 😊

I am really suspect of neutrogena sunscreens now. Used one Last year and kept getting way more tanning than when I was using others as I rotated them around. I play tennis 3 times a week at the same time, which is my main sun exposure in the summer as I am heat sensitive. So it was easy to see which sunscreens worked and which didn’t. Their one newer tinted face sunscreen worked but the design of the bottle is horrible and lots of complaints on it leaking.

EltaMD UV Restore is an awesome full-mineral sunscreen. I have oily acne prone skin and it blends well without breaking my skin out ❤

I absolutely love Isntree's Watery Sun Gel! Didn't Naomi Osaka come out with a water-resistant mineral sunscreen for deeper skin tones?
